Chronic Bronchitis.

Chronic Bronchitis is also an inflamma
tion Of the mucous membrane of the bron-
chial tnbes. When a cold settles on the
lungs the disease either ends in bronchitis
or pneumonia. If IL ends in bronchitis II
usually passes off as ii cold on The chest,
and still the patient does NJ { feel entirely
well. He feels tired and languid, and is in.
capaSle OF taking his usual amount OF exer.
CHE. and experiences 81 oItIess of breath
with more or less warmth in the palms OF
his hands Soon after this cough appears,
mucus, followed By he ctic flush, loss OF
flesh and strength and night sweats con.
tinue when the patient assumes all the ap.
pearances Of having genuine case OF con.
sumption. But this Is simply catarrh of the
lungs or chronic bronchitis.
In the later stage OF the disease the mucus
membrane OF the larger bronchial tube
softens, while in the smaller tubes and air
cells OF the lungs the mucus membrane be-
comes congested and infiammtd. There
are no cayaties nof tubercles in the lungs,
but merely wasting away OF the lar ger
bronchial tubes, and death takes place
from obstruction OF the bronchial tubes and
air cells OF the lungs. The patient dies
unable TO expectorate the mucus which
accumulates In the ge leading TO the
lungs, which In some cases is sticky and
small in quantity, hut more commonly
copious, OF light straw or ye)lowish green.
Oiteutimes streaks of blood make their ap-
pea rance in the mucus. ard at times there
is disagreeable smell Persons thus al.
hlcted are very liable to take a cold, at
which time the mucus becomes GEAR and
frothy, and it is not uncommonlv the case
that the patient dies in one OF these attacks

A Noble Action.

Officer Little, while patroling his
beat on First street last evening, was
attracted by the violent blowing of a
police whistle, on Main street. Hast
ening in that direction he was horri-
fed to find woman, in a beastly
state OF intoxication, staggering along
the pavement. holding four-year old
child, in semi-nude condition, by
the hand. An express wagon was
secured, and the woman and child
placed in it and both were conveyed
to the City Prison. The woman
was of the "crying drunk"
species, and the tears stole down her
dissipated cheeks when the infant was
torn from her embrace. She was
charged with disorderly conduct and
placed in cell. The child was found
to be in filthy and emaciated condi-
ton and appeared to be suffering
terribly from want of nourishment.
Officer Little seemed to be greatly af-
fected by the scene and took the little
sufferer in his arms with that tender
mess seldom seen only in mother and
took it to his home, where it will be
properly cared for until some of the
numerous charitable institutions can
provide for it.

To Set Aside n Patent.

United States District-Attorney, ]
Marion Brooks, commenced suit in the
United States Circuit Court yesterday
on behalf of the United States against
Albert Lancaster. This suit was
brought to declare patent to land in
San Diego County null and void. The
complaint sets forth that defendant, in
making final proof, introduced fraud
ulent testimony, and swore to false
statements. 1t is further alleged that
defendant swore that he had complied
with the law. whereas he had only
built a brush shanty. In building the
brush shanty it is alleged that the de-
fendant only stuck the ends OF the
poles in the ground, and covered the
roof with brush. 1t is also stated that
no crops were raised, and that in
stead of living on the premises as re-
quired by law, he had only paid the
place an occasional visit. The real
home of the defendant is alleged to be
two miles away, with his uncle, where
he raised bees for a living. This case
is in reality test case, and upon its
decision depend number of other
cases, which it is claimed are OF a
similar nature. 1t will be pushed to
| the end.

Medical Inhalation Combined
with Constitutional Remedies.
Our treatment of the diseases of the respir-
atory passages consists in the employment
of Medical Inhalation, for its direct effects
on the diseased organs; and. at the same
time, adopting such hygienic measures, and
administering such medicines by the stOm-
ach as will most effectually purify the blood,
give tone to the nervous system and build
up and strengthen the general constitution.
In other words, employ combined local and
general treatment.
What Is medical inhalation? Before stat
ing briefly what medical inhalation is, we
propose, In as few words as possible, to state
clearly what it is not.
Medical Inhalation is not a cure-all, nos
trum, or panacea. 1t is not specific REM
edy for any disease. 1t is not quack medi-
cine, advertised to cure any and all the ills
that flesh Is heir to, and intended to fill the
pockets of its proprietors 1t is not tails
man whose possession insures health to its
pOssessOr without the intervention of either
sense or Judgment Medical inhalation is
none of these things.
Medical Inhalation is simply and solely a
method of taking medicines by inhaling or
breathing them into the lungs, instead of
swallowing them into the stomach. BY in
halatiOn the proper medicines are applied
directly to the seat of the disease, In the
nose, throat or lungs and it is clear TO every
reasoning person how peculiarly applicable
inhalation is in the disorders of the orgnns
named. If you have sealded or burned the
surface of the body, or wounded any limb or
member, you do not swallow the remedy in
tended to heal the disorganized tissues on
the contrary you apply 1t directly to the seat
OF the wound or injury. Why, then, when
suffering from catarrh OF the nasal passages
or throat, or afflicted with liberation of the
lungs, should you rely on medicines taken
into the stomach?
Our experience and success in treating
diseases of the nose, throat and lungs dem
onstrates, beyond all question, that the true
scientific treatment of these diseases is that
treatment which combines the local effect
OF medical inhalation with the constitutional
effects of systemic remedies, given in the
usual way by the stomach. One or both
methods must be adopted as the circumstan-
ces demand, and such remedies must be en-
ployed as the experience and Judgment of
the physician have proved to be proper In
each particular case.
